Chapter 797: Chapter 796: Little hand holds up
Yang Fei’s relentless and shameless behavior suddenly made Qin Yanyang somewhat uncomfortable.
She certainly admitted that she still had feelings for this man, but she stubbornly believed that she could break up with him completely.
If there were a second choice, she would rather go to the Hidden Sect alone than let Yang Fei come with her.
But going to the Hidden Sect alone was simply too dangerous.
Now, her identity and status were very special; if the powerhouses in the Hidden Sect really wanted to kill her at all costs, then control some puppets to take over the country, her going alone would be very dangerous.
But if she let Yang Fei accompany her, he was too clingy, and she was still holding back a bellyful of anger, getting annoyed just by looking at him.
Outside the tent, the several experts from the Military Department watched Mo Yinpeng sneakily eavesdropping with her ear against the tent with strange expressions on their faces. They didn’t make a sound and even some were tempted to listen in themselves.
The news of the Minister and her husband’s quarrels and divorce had already spread for a long time. If not for the many significant events that had taken place internationally and domestically recently, the marital issues of Qin Yanyang and Yang Fei would have definitely been blockbuster news in certain circles of the Divine Continent.
Now that the Divine Continent was once again unified, everyone’s tense nerves relaxed quite a bit, and now knowing that Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang were alone inside, they naturally ignited their gossiping spirits.
Just earlier, the couple’s conversation had reached their ears, and it was indeed quite thrilling.
The Minister’s husband is truly shameless.
And the Minister’s attitude towards her husband didn’t seem to be that bad either.
This made them think of the Tong Family woman who had recently been staying in the military camp.
Tsk, tsk, each a great beauty that could only be meticulously selected from millions of people. What kind of fortune did Yang Fei have to gain favor with both?
After the collision of a volcano with Earth, he not only didn’t make a decisive choice, but he wanted to keep both.
Truly a role model for our generation!
A man could die decades earlier for living up to that standard.
At a distance, Qin Huai’an had been paying attention to the movements there since Yang Fei entered Qin Yanyang’s tent.
He had advised his granddaughter that now was a critical time; they could no longer afford to have conflicts with Yang Fei, especially not make a scene in the military camp.
Looking at it now, it seemed the girl had taken his words to heart.
Otherwise, with her temperament, that tent would have been overturned long ago.
Indeed, shortly after Yang Fei had gone in, the tent was lifted, and the two of them walked out one after another.
Having heard the footsteps inside, Mo Yinpeng had already slipped away quietly, and the two guards from the Military Department had deliberately distanced themselves a bit, pretending as if they knew nothing.
After coming out, Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang glanced at the two men, with Qin Yanyang letting out a snort and Yang Fei giving them a sly smile.
With their level of cultivation, how could they be fooled by the eavesdropping outside?
Once outside the tent, Qin Yanyang took the lead, with Yang Fei following behind as they headed towards the teleportation channel.
Qin Huai’an along with many other high-ranking military officers came up to meet them, revealing grave and serious expressions on their faces.
Standing at the entrance of the channel, Qin Huai’an said, "Try to negotiate as much as possible. If it’s impossible to reach an agreement, also try to control your emotions and prioritize your safety. As long as you both come back unharmed, we aren’t without the strength to contend with them."
Qin Yanyang nodded in acknowledgment.
Yang Fei patted his chest and said, "Grandpa, don’t worry, I will bring Yanyang back safely."
Qin Yanyang snorted, "I can take care of myself."
Yang Fei laughed, "When husband and wife are of one mind, they are unbeatable in the world."
Qin Yanyang snorted again and paid him no further attention.
She had to admit that when they joined hands, they could display tremendous combat power. Now that both of them were at the Divine Travel Realm with powerful Divine Soul Thought Power, if they teamed up, they were absolutely confident of defeating any Divine Travel Realm powerhouse from the Hidden Sect.
"Let’s go, so they don’t get impatient waiting for us," Qin Yanyang said, and then she rose into the air.
Yang Fei immediately followed.
In the camp, Wang Lei and Xu Jian stood together.
Xu Jian sighed, "Let’s hope everything goes smoothly. In such a beautiful world, why must there be war?"
Wang Lei nodded silently, yet deep inside he harbored a trace of worry.
Based on his understanding of the Hidden Sect and its aristocratic families and Sects, these people would definitely not be content to be subordinates after integrating into society, nor would they willingly submit to secular laws and regulations.
No matter how lenient the conditions offered by Divine Continent Country to the Hidden Sect were, the Sect was likely to agree, but once they truly joined society, many matters would not be conducted as agreed.
As time passed, the Hidden Sect’s ambition to meddle in secular power would become apparent, and the inevitable conflicts and contradictions between both parties would eventually erupt.
The reason for the lack of eruption was due to more severe external conflicts pressing at the forefront.
However, that was a matter for the future.
For now, the primary goal was to maintain the high degree of unity of the Yanhuang Nation.
As for the future, that would be addressed one step at a time.
Perhaps in a few years, or even longer, Divine Continent’s own strength would have developed rapidly enough to counterbalance the powers of the Hidden Sect.
...
Near the Hidden Sect’s teleportation channel, with a surge of spatial turbulence, Qin Yanyang and Yang Fei appeared one after the other in this luxuriant forest rich with Spiritual Energy.
Mo Li, Chen Liangzhong, Zuo Wenjun, and Sect Master Zhang all showed a flicker of motion in their expressions and rushed towards the location.
After the battle with Qingtian Sect, Sect Master Zhang had volunteered to guard this channel entrance to prevent those who had fled from the great battle from escaping through it.
Zuo Wenjun and Chen Liangzhong had originally been tasked with guarding this portal. After consulting with the senior members of the Wang Family and the Ji Family, they too had returned to their posts.
In addition, the teleportation channel within the Zhuge family had been taken over by the victorious Five Families Alliance, which had also dispatched several Divine Travel Realm powerhouses to stand guard.
At the news of their arrival, the four caught sight of Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang.
The four were very familiar with Yang Fei, and even Mo Li, Chen Liangzhong, and Zuo Wenjun had met Qin Yanyang before.
But it was the first time for Sect Master Zhang to see Qin Yanyang.
After assessing Qin Yanyang with a glance, Sect Master Zhang marveled inwardly, praising, "Truly a Heavenly Pride Girl, I never expected such talent to emerge from the outside world."
Hearing this, Yang Fei smiled and said, "Uncle Master Zhang, what you say... I too grew up in the outside world."
Sect Master Zhang chuckled at the words.
In fact, not only Sect Master Zhang was secretly astonished by Qin Yanyang’s cultivation realm, Mo Li, Chen Liangzhong, and Zuo Wenjun were also extremely surprised.
This was their second or third time meeting Qin Yanyang, but they found that her aura had become more stable and her eyes and presence vastly stronger than before.
Instinctively, when their gazes met the young woman’s, they experienced an inexplicable sense of crisis.
Only a power equal in realm to themselves could evoke such a sense of urgency in Divine Travel Realm powerhouses.
The four couldn’t help but inwardly gasp in shock.
Had this young woman entered the ranks of the Divine Travel Realm in just a few months’ time?
Turning to look at Yang Fei, the morning sun cast golden highlights on this young man and woman, radiating a vigorous vitality that sparked a feeling of melancholy within the observers—a sense that with each generation, new talents replace the old. The future belonged to the youth, and they wondered how long their own generation would last.
"Uncle Master, this is my wife, Qin Yanyang. She represents Divine Continent Country to discuss the Hidden Sect’s entry into society with all of you. May I ask when the representatives of the various factions of the Hidden Sect will arrive?" Knowing that Sect Master Zhang was the most powerful and highest-ranking person present, and considering his good relationship with his mentor, Huang Chengcheng, and his strong support for the Taoist ways, Yang Fei took Qin Yanyang’s hand and approached Sect Master Zhang.
Qin Yanyang could have ducked away, but for some reason, she did not dodge, allowing Yang Fei to pull her along toward Sect Master Zhang.
They were after all husband and wife.
Having already shared a bed, and even united to fight against Zhuge Cang at Yunwu Mountain’s Base after their last argument, it was best to be cautious and careful in the face of many strong figures from the Hidden Sect. Holding hands would not result in any loss.
